Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang seems to be feeling the burn after being put through one of Unai Emery’s gruelling Arsenal training sessions.
The Spanish tactician took over from Arsene Wenger this summer and a video has emerged on the club’s Twitter feed of his demanding and intensive training style on the training ground.

This is quite a change from life under Wenger, who was known for being something of a relaxed figure when it came to coaching, while Emery seems considerably more hands-on if these early clips are anything to go by.
As well as that, Aubameyang jokingly tweeted that he’s ‘dead’, begging team-mate Eddie Nketiah to help him after a lot of running.

Arsenal’s pre-season is underway and the players will need to be in great shape if they are to improve on last season’s disappointing campaign, which saw them finish 6th in the table.
It seems clear change was needed as things seemed to go stale under Wenger, and fans will hope these exhausting Emery training sessions pay off this season.
